Died OF Zee Water.

It is certainly more credltable TO die from
excessive indulgence In leo water than from
drinking to much rum; but, owing TO the
unsettled condition OF the future probation
question, 1t is better for people TO prolong
their days as much ae possible here below
and make the best OF their opportunities
than to rush into the uncertain future by
drinking too much Ice water these hot days
II we are to believe tho lamentable parable
by its absence, and unless people are pretty
sure about their future destination they had
better run no risks. All OF which is sug-
gested by the death OF woman In Lawrence

Not only the members of the reunion so
ciety of Vermont veteran officers, but all
the people of Brattleboro, are placed under
a debt of gratitude to Hon. John d. Long
of Massachusetts by his admirable address
ON Tuesday evening. Strong and original
in thought, elegant in diction, and eloquent
in expression and delivery, the Grafton Ger
tainly was but more than this. it fitted the
occasion We doubt if at any previous
meeting the society has had an address
which so perfectly met the demand Of the
hour in every respect. The speakers pic
ture of the ideal soldier, who went out from
every Vermont village and hamlet to fight
the battles of his country, was a tender and
touching tribute to the flower of our Yer
mont youth who gave their lives for the
right, and who sleep the sweet sleep of the
hOnOred dead in every quiet graveyard in
the Green Mountain state His tribute to
the brave and gallant Stannard was sin
cere and heartfelt, and touched a quick and
responsive chord in the heart of every vet
eran who listened. Nothing more complete
in its way was ever uttered than Governor
Longs estimate Of Gen. Logan, and his
generous need Of praise and recognition Of
all that was patriotic and manly and admi-
rable in that striking figure in our country's
history, the mention Of whose name makes
the pulses Of every old soldier thrill with an
emotion which he cannot put into words.
But the true strength Of the Grafton was
in its mastery statement of the real issue
which was involved in the war for the In
ion, and the results which our victorious
soldiers achieved 1t was no war for con
quest of foes over foes, or of brothers over
brothers, which they fought that is but
brutality 1t was, withal, the eternal war
of right with wrong, which Is divine lit
was the chastisement of love which over
threw, not our foes, but the false gods they
worshipped, the false principles they obey
ed, and that restored 20 them and secured
10 Us a Union founded for the first time ON
universal freedom and equality"
In Gov. Longs entire utterance on this
subject there was not a trace Of that weak
and false sentimeutality which, oft repeat
ed, has grown repulsve u men of virile
mind ON the contrary, it was manly.
patriotic declaration, on ground Of the
broadcast hberality, that the cause of the
Union triumphed because it was the right
cause, and because il was as much for the
well being Of the South a. Of the North
that II SHOULD triumph
The Grafton was lesson in patriotism
1t was Of that kind and temper which ought
